Music of the Week
The music of the week is: Clock Tower
Turkey
Pipe dream was the first song I heard from this album, and from Turkey in general, and remains one of my favorite tracks on this album.
It really intrigued me because of the combination of just how cool it is and how strongly it evokes a sort of dreamy and fantasy-like feeling, while being able to pick it apart while listening to it quite easily, which I immediately want to say does not make it simplistic or "easy to make" or anything like that, I just mean that the song achieves a lot with quite little, which I just think is very cool.

The overall sound design and synths specifically create this fantasy-like atmosphere, and the entire album keeps this mysterious intrigue and sense of dreamyness for me.
This combined with all of the vocal/dialogue samples used make these songs even more unique and "powerful"? Not the exact word I'm looking for, but it's close enough, it just has more to it!

The songs on this album also balance high intensity and lower intensity segments so well, it's like it gently tugs you along at first, and then suddenly sends you hurdling through a field of stars, only to gently catch you and continue tugging you along.
Unless you're listening to the song Clock Tower of course, where you just get yanked back and forth between tempos, but in a fun way!

Through all the coolness and dreamyness, this album is also just very silly, with it's vocal/dialogue samples and sometimes wacky instrumentals, it doesn't take itself too serious all of the time, or at least that's what it feels like, and that makes it even more fun.

Some other songs I want to highlight from this album are: Composers March - Which is suddenly extremely percussion heavy, which I fucking love of course, but it's done in a way that makes the song fit in really well with the rest of the album, and still be extremely energetic and unique. Also I absolutely love 1:15 - 1:44
ALMIGHTY TURKEY! - Because the chord progression and percussion together make this song so fun, it reminds me of a lot of furry/hyperpop/happy hardcore tracks I love.
Rosey Cheeks - The vocals from Alice Glass are so fucking good on this track, it can still give me goosebumps when listening to it, it combines so well with the drums and eerie synths on this track, it's cool af
Poltergeist On Rodeo Drive - This song's kick, bass, percussion and keys combined are so fkn addictive together, I don't know how else to describe it than this song being extremely satisfying to listen to, it just all fits together extremely well, it's really good.

Clock Tower? I barely know her!
Here you can find weekly tunes picked every other sunday by yours truly!
It might be a single track, an EP, an Album or an Artist, anything!

The music of the week is selected on the basis of whether I think it is cool.
I don't plan on making this a promotional spot, just a personal highlight.
The only thing I'll keep in mind is that I feature a new artist every week.
